When Rick Salomon is in a poker recreation, there’s often no scarcity of motion.
He lived as much as his fame in a current episode of PokerGO’s Excessive Stakes Poker when he performed a seven-figure pot with A3
.
Motion begins with blinds of $500-$1,000 and a $2,000 straddle. Alan Keating raised to $4,000 with Q5
and Salomon three-bet to $20,000 on the button.
Peter Wang, who misplaced the biggest pot in high-stakes poker historical past to Keating earlier within the season, cold-called from the large blind with QQ
.
Sam Kiki was within the straddle and four-bet to $140,000 with AOk
. Keating rapidly folded and Salomon, simply as rapidly, went all in for his $555,000.
Wang thought for about 30 seconds earlier than throwing his pocket pair away and Kiki snap-called for simply shy of $500,000.
“I bought a nasty hand,” stated Salomon because the playing cards had been being turned face-up.
In line with the Card Participant Poker Odds Calculator, Kiki was a virtually 68% favourite to take down a seven-figure pot.
Kiki and Salomon ran the board twice. You possibly can see the leads to the video beneath:
